I think the art style is growing on me... had they done another pixel-based 8-bit version like 9 and 10, I think it would be a bit too repetitive and not attempted to bring the series forward.

 

True, probably better than to do the 8-bit retromania thing to death... They still coulda done a high res sprite based continuation of 8 or something tho... I guess they semi tried with some cel shading but somehow it just doesn't look that good (also it's only on the characters and not the bgs, makes it look kinda inconsistent imo), i mean think of recent Guilty Gears or the new DBZ fighting game in comparison. Oh well, at the end of the day gameplay and level design is everything.

 

Consider me hyped!

i think everyone has agreed at this point that 16bit and above sprites are way too expensive (which sucks) and opt for shitty 3d models. game does look fun tho

Saw a write-up about a supposed leak regarding the new From Software project, the same from the Shadows Die Twice teaser (god I hope that's not the name of the game)...but the info was sourced on 4Chan so I'm not even going to link it because who knows. Sounds like an evolution from Bloodborne and sounds pretty interesting...if any of it's true. Maybe. Waiting for E3 and hopefully we'll see something.

I have a gut feeling it will end up being Bloodborne 2, which is not a bad thing at all...

If (big if) the leak is correct, they state directly that it's not Bloodborne 2, and is a new IP entirely (though perhaps similar in tone or something to their game Kuon) The rundown makes it sound very good tbh, and is very detailed. And if the leak is correct I will likely be a very happy little boy.

Not to apply the brakes to the hype train already, but I'm hearing rumors/speculation that FO76 is gonna be online multiplayer. If that means no single player, then count me out.

don't know if this is old news here but I stumbled across a trailer for a spiritual successor to the SWAT games shown last year and uh it has a direct reference to Coil? (40 secs)

Yes, Ikaruga is excellent - and I imagine on Switch since you can use the screen vertically (in TATE mode) you get the arcade experience (I had to portrait-mount my PC monitor to play the Steam version properly)

PS: dig how megaman takes on design features of robot masters instead of only changing color like he used to.

Yes, that is a nice touch (and something they can finally do now that the tech has caught up with the concept)

As long as the worlds don't get too crowded I'd be well up for this game. The series needs something fresh added to it.

my thinking as well. it won't be an MMORPG like WoW or LoL, in which case I would steer well clear.

I'd say yes if you are heavily into fighters (on the Switch) or just want a solid arcade stick. I'm not sure if you can get a cheaper stick for the Switch, but after trying to play Metal Slug XX on PS4 with a control pad (yuk) I had to bust out my stick for MSXX to feel "right".

Mayflash F300 is decent enough for those on a budget, plus you can use it with practically every other console + PC.

can that be modded easily enough with a full sanwa?

 

oh nm. clearly made to be modded
 

• 1. Compatible with PS4,PS3,XBOX ONE,XBOX360 and PC,Android, Switch
• 2. Compatible with Sanwa Denshi buttons and joystick that is perfect for customization
• 3. Supports the XINPUT and DINPUT when being used on PC

Ikaruga on Switch represent!

Planning to get Xbox X together with Forza 7.

It's a good console. Do you have a 4k HDR TV?

Thanks. No, just 1080p.

Who is playing the Dark Souls remaster? Hearing it’s very close to the original but then I saw this video and it looks a little different to me...

Ikaruga confirmed for PS4!

 

 

"Running on PS4, official announcement next week (E3?) with a release to follow soon."

It looks like they changed and fixed little to nothing wrt. gameplay, and I'm not a huge fan of how it looks with changes lighting and textures, so I passed. The main purpose of the project really seems to have just been about porting for the Switch.
